Strut tower bar squeaks
Anyone have this problem? I put a Neuspeed one on and it squeaks a lot during turns and accelerations. Can I just grease it up underneath?

Tighten the nuts more.
I agree. If it squeaks, then it is shifting. Also are you sure that it is the strut bar? It stiffened up the chassis, so it may actually be something else that is squeaking.

Re: Strut tower bar squeaks (sleeperciv)
ok maybe I'll try tightening it up more. It was a really tight fit to put it on since it was from an EK, but I dont' know if that matters. I thought I torqued it down pretty well but maybe not. Also, there are probably a bunch of other things squeaking, so it may not be that. I think my camber kit and/or balljoints are doing it. But this extra squeak started happeining as of today when I installed the bar
